For the uninitiated: Four albums into their recording career Dr. Dog is a Philadelphia based indie outfit playing a variation of collected sounds culled from the what could be the collection of a dedicated 1970s vinyl enthusiast. Which, based of my tastes, has me pondering how I was not on board with these guys sooner? Ah well, only to make 2007 that much sweeter. Speaking of 2007, the band reportedly has an as-yet-untitled record in the can which will hopefully see the light of day this year. Elsewhere: Listen to the NPR audio program Fresh Air as Ken Tucker reviews the band’s 2005 album Easy Beat.
